Depicts ants as social creatures living in complex societies. Shows ways they control their environment.
Ken Smith sez: This is probably the most genuinely entertaining of all the John Kieran's Kaleidoscope films. The poor ants are anthropomorphised to the nth degree; we even hear The Wedding March when the queen and her drone fly away from the nest. Kieran's patter has never been more meandering; he sounds like a befuddled uncle narrating home movies. Clumsy but enjoyable.

PESTILENCE (ANTS)
VS of ants:
Building and repairing their city.
Birthing of grub.
Mating with queen.
Attacking a caterpillar.
